England vs Sri Lanka T20 World Cup Match Prediction & Betting Tips
Get to Know Who will win ENG vs SL match, T20 World Cup 2022 and toss Prediction with Head to Head stats, Playing 11, Dream11 Prediction, Betting Rates, Live score & winning percentage.
Jos Buttler has been in excellent form for England at the top of the order since returning from injury last month. He is our pick for their highest run scorer in this game. With the ball, Mark Wood has six wickets from three games in this tournament and we are backing him to be England’s top wicket taker against Sri Lanka.
Kusal Mendis has hit two half-centuries in the competition and he is our tip for Sri Lanka’s highest run scorer against England. Wanindu Hasaranga is the leading wicket taker in the 2022 T20 World Cup and the spinner is a strong choice for Sri Lanka’s top wicket taker in this match.
Mark Wood is a genuine strike-bowler and we recommend backing him to take over 1.5 wickets in this clash.

England Team News & Playing 11
ENG Team News
We have seen consistency of selection from England across their three matches in the tournament so far and, with no injuries reported by the 2021 semi-finalists, we expect to see the same XI for this game. None of England’s players are in poor enough form to warrant being dropped.
ENG Key Players
Jos Buttler - England’s skipper was in excellent form in the win over New Zealand. He hit 73 runs from 47 balls and could only be dismissed via a run-out.
Sam Curran - The bowling all-rounder has been England’s most consistent bowler in this format over the last couple of months and has a strike-rate of 7.1 in the T20 World Cup 2022.
Mark Wood - The right-arm pace bowler got the big wicket of James Neesham in the 16th over and turned the tide of the game against New Zealand firmly back in England’s favour.
ENG Team Form
England have won two of their last three completed games in this format.
Jos Buttler (wk) (c), Alex Hales, Dawid Malan, Ben Stokes, Harry Brook, Liam Livingstone, Moeen Ali, Sam Curran, Chris Woakes, Adil Rashid, Mark Wood
England vs Sri Lanka Match Prediction
Sri Lanka Team News & Playing 11

There was one change for Sri Lanka to their side ahead of the win over Afghanistan in Match 32. Chamika Karunaratne, who was selected for the 65 run defeat against New Zealand, made way for Pramod Madushan in the XI.

Kusal Mendis - The opener is Sri Lanka’s leading run scorer in the tournament and only two players have hit more runs than him in the tournament.
Maheesh Theekshana - The 22 year old off-spinner went wicketless for the first time in the competition in the defeat to New Zealand but has taken nine wickets in the competition.
Wanindu Hasaranga - The bowling all-rounder has an average of 13.53 in the 2022 T20 World Cup and will be looking forward to bowling on this Sydney surface.

England vs Sri Lanka Betting Odds
Although Sri Lanka got back to winning ways in their last fixture, it is England who are the overwhelming favourites to win this match with the bookies.
With England’s recent record over Sri Lanka so impressive in this format, it will take a huge performance from Sri Lanka to get the win in this contest.
ENG vs SL Top Team Batsmen
Jos Buttler, Alex Hales and Dawid Malan are our batting tips for England. Buttler has the top odds of all the England batters and is recognised as one of the most powerful players in world cricket. Malan has dropped down the order a couple of times in recent matches but is ready to deliver for England should early wickets fall.
We recommend Pathum Nissanka, Kusal Mendis and Dhananjaya de Silva with the bat for Sri Lanka. Nissanka is the favourite with the bookies to be Sri Lanka’s highest run scorer and is a strong batter across all formats. Mendis has impressed in the tournament and is always capable of winning a game single handedly.
ENG vs SL Top Team Bowlers
We are backing Mark Wood, Sam Curran and Adil Rashid with the ball for England. The pace of Wood is a big point of difference in any game and it is no surprise to see him as the favourite to take the most wickets for England. Rashid has bowled well in the competition but is yet to pick up a wicket. He is too good a bowler to remain wicketless for long.
Wanindu Hasaranga, Maheesh Theekshana and Pramod Madushan are our bowling picks for Sri Lanka. No player has taken more wickets than Hasaranga in the competition and his odds reflect this. Madushan has an excellent record in IT20s with a strike-rate of 10.7 from five games.
🏆 England vs Sri Lanka Prediction
After winning the 2022 Asia Cup a couple of months ago, you can never completely rule Sri Lanka out of any game. However, England’s bowling attack have been in excellent form and we expect them to cause Sri Lanka’s batters a lot of problems. Overall, we are backing England to win this match.
